Crystal Palace sign US international Chris Richards from Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich on a five-year contract, both clubs said on Wednesday. Financial details of the deal were not disclosed. BBC reported Palace will pay an initial 8.5 million pounds ($10.33 million) for the 22-year-old centre back, with the fee rising to 11 million pounds with add-ons. "I'm really excited for it," Richards told Palace's website. The kind of project I've seen (attracted me). It's a lot of young players but also young players who have a lot of fight. Palace is a club that seems like they're always fighting."
